FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to small molecule compounds and their use in the treatm ent of bacterial infections, in particular Tuberculosis.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Tuberculosis (TB) still claims the life of more than 1.8 million people each year. Inadequate use of chemotherapy has led to an increasing number of multi-drug resistant (MDR) TB, and the situation is likely to worsen with the emergence and spread of extensively drug resistant forms of the disease (Chaisson R. E. & Nuermberger E. L., N Engl J Med 2012). The most urgent clinical need is to discover potent agents capable of reducing the time of M/XDR tuberculosis therapy with a success rate comparable to susceptible tuberculosis. The last decade has seen the discovery of promising new agent classes for the management of tuberculosis (Stover C. K. et al. Nature 2000; Andreis K. et al. Science 2005), several of which are currently under clinical development (Diacon A.H. et al. Antimicrob Agents Chemother 2012; Gler M. T. et al. N Engl J Med 2012). However, given the high attrition rate during clinical development and the emergence of resistance, the discovery of additional clinical candidates is clearly needed.

Current chemotherapy consists of compounds that directly target Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacillus, by targeting either the synthesis of macromolecules such as DNA, RNA or protein synthesis, or key components of the cell-wall. The most widely used dedicated anti-tubercular drugs isoniazid, ethionamide and pyrazinamide are pro-drugs that first require activation. As active forms, they demonstrate inhibitory activity on primarily cell-wall synthesis and/or on a wide range of mycobacterial targets, which have not yet been fully characterized.

One of the most challenging obstacles in the discovery of new anti-TB drugs is the lack of predictive in vitro screening methods that reproduce critical features found in vivo. Although there is still a lack of understanding of the biological mechanisms behind tubercle bacillus persistence, i.e. the location and state of latent bacteria in humans, M. tuberculosis is thought to persists in primary granulomas and within various cell types (Houben et al., 2006; Neyrolles et al., 2006). The bacillus mainly localizes inside phagocytic cells, such as macrophages and dendritic cells, where it adapts drastically its metabolism to survive the harsh environment found in professional phagocytic cells (Rohde et al., 2007). Therefore, we developed and used a phenotypic high-content screening technology in infected macrophages to identify novel antitubercular compounds (WO2010003533A2), overcoming many of the numerous and burdensome steps involved with other methodologies (Arain et al., 1996). The technology has several advantages compared to traditional phenotypic screening approaches since it allows i) screening under physiologically relevant conditions, which is notoriously challenging in the field (Stanley S. A. et al., ACS Chem Biol 2012), ii) selection of non-cytotoxic compounds that penetrate effectively inside macrophages (Pethe K. et al. Nat Med. 2013), and iii) selection of compounds that are poor substrates for macrophage-induced efflux mechanisms, thereby compressing the discovery and optimization time of new lead molecules.

It was an object of the present invention to identify compounds effective against bacterial infections, in particular compounds that would prevent M tuberculosis multiplication inside the host macrophage.

Administration and Formulation

The production of medicaments containing the compounds of the invention, its active metabolites or isomers and salts according to the invention and their application can be performed according to well-known pharmaceutical methods.

While the compounds of the invention, useable according to the invention for use in therapy, may be administered in the form of the raw chemical compound, it is preferred to introduce the active ingredient, optionally in the form of a physiologically acceptable salt in a pharmaceutical composition together with one or more adjuvants, excipients, carriers, buffers, diluents, and/or other customary pharmaceutical auxiliaries. Such salts of the compounds of the invention may be anhydrous or solvated.

In a preferred embodiment, the invention provides medicaments comprising a compound useable according to the invention, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof, together with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers therefor, and, optionally, other therapeutic and/or prophylactic ingredients. The carrier(s) must be “acceptable” in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation and not harmful to the recipient thereof.

A medicament of the invention may be those suitable for oral, rectal, bronchial, nasal, topical, buccal, sub-lingual, transdermal, vaginal or parenteral (including cutaneous, subcutaneous, intramuscular, intraperitoneal, intravenous, intraarterial, intracerebral, intraocular injection or infusion) administration, or those in a form suitable for administration by inhalation or insufflation, including powders and liquid aerosol administration, or by sustained release systems. Suitable examples of sustained release systems include semipermeable matrices of solid hydrophobic polymers containing the compound of the invention, which matrices may be in form of shaped articles, e.g., films or microcapsules.

The compounds useable according to the invention, together with a conventional adjuvant, carrier, or diluent, may thus be placed into the form of medicament and unit dosages thereof. Such forms include solids, and in particular tablets, filled capsules, powder and pellet forms, and liquids, in particular aqueous or non-aqueous solutions, suspensions, emulsions, elixirs, and capsules filled with the same, all for oral use, suppositories for rectal administration, and sterile injectable solutions for parenteral use. Such medicament and unit dosage forms thereof may comprise conventional ingredients in conventional proportions, with or without additional active compounds or principles, and such unit dosage forms may contain any suitable effective amount of the active ingredient commensurate with the intended daily dosage range to be employed.

The compounds useable according to the invention can be administered in a wide variety of oral and parenteral dosage forms. It will be obvious to those skilled in the art that the following dosage forms may comprise, as the active component, either a compound(s) useable according to the invention or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of a compound(s) useable according to the invention.

For preparing a medicament from a compound useable according to the invention, pharmaceutically acceptable carriers can be either solid or liquid. Solid form preparations include powders, tablets, pills, capsules, cachets, suppositories, and dispersible granules. A solid carrier can be one or more substances which may also act as diluents, flavouring agents, solubilizers, lubricants, suspending agents, binders, preservatives, tablet disintegrating agents, or an encapsulating material.

In powders, the carrier is a finely divided solid which is in a mixture with the finely divided active component. In tablets, the active component is mixed with the carrier having the necessary binding capacity in suitable proportions and compacted in the shape and size desired. Suitable carriers are magnesium carbonate, magnesium stearate, talc, sugar, lactose, pectin, dextrin, starch, gelatin, tragacanth, methylcellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, a low melting wax, cocoa butter, and the like. The term “preparation” is intended to include the formulation of the active compound with encapsulating material as carrier providing a capsule in which the active component, with or without carriers, is surrounded by a carrier, which is thus in association with it. Similarly, cachets and lozenges are included. Tablets, powders, capsules, pills, cachets, and lozenges can be used as solid forms suitable for oral administration.

For preparing suppositories, a low melting wax, such as a mixture of fatty acid glyceride or cocoa butter, is first melted and the active component is dispersed homogeneously therein, as by stirring. The molten homogenous mixture is then poured into convenient sized moulds, allowed to cool, and thereby to solidify. Compositions suitable for vaginal administration may be presented as pessaries, tampons, creams, gels, pastes, foams or sprays containing in addition to the active ingredient such carriers as are known in the art to be appropriate. Liquid preparations include solutions, suspensions, and emulsions, for example, water or water-propylene glycol solutions. For example, parenteral injection liquid preparations can be formulated as solutions in aqueous polyethylene glycol solution.

The chemical compounds according to the present invention may thus be formulated for parenteral administration (e.g., by injection, for example bolus injection or continuous infusion) and may be presented in unit dose form in ampoules, pre-filled syringes, small volume infusion or in multi-dose containers with an added preservative. The compositions may take such forms as suspensions, solutions, or emulsions in oily or aqueous vehicles, and may contain formulation agents such as suspending, stabilising and/or dispersing agents. Alternatively, the active ingredient may be in powder form, obtained by aseptic isolation of sterile solid or by lyophilization from solution, for constitution with a suitable vehicle, e.g., sterile, pyrogen-free water, before use.

Aqueous solutions suitable for oral use can be prepared by dissolving the active component in water and adding suitable colorants, flavours, stabilising and thickening agents, as desired. Aqueous suspensions suitable for oral use can be made by dispersing the finely divided active component in water with viscous material, such as natural or synthetic gums, resins, methylcellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, or other well known suspending agents.

Also included are solid form preparations which are intended to be converted, shortly before use, to liquid form preparations for oral administration. Such liquid forms include solutions, suspensions, and emulsions. These preparations may contain, in addition to the active component, colorants, flavours, stabilisers, buffers, artificial and natural sweeteners, dispersants, thickeners, solubilizing agents, and the like.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the medicament is applied topically or systemically or via a combination of the two routes.

For administration, the compounds of the present invention may, in one embodiment, be administered in a formulation containing 0.001% to 70% per weight of the compound, preferably between 0.01% to 70% per weight of the compound, even more preferred between 0.1% and 70% per weight of the compound. In one embodiment, a suitable amount of compound administered is in the range of from 0.01 mg/kg body weight to 1 g/kg body weight.

Compositions suitable for administration also include lozenges comprising the active agent in a flavoured base, usually sucrose and acacia or tragacanth; pastilles comprising the active ingredient in an inert base such as gelatin and glycerol or sucrose and acacia; and mouthwashes comprising the active ingredient in a suitable liquid carrier.

Solutions or suspensions are applied directly to the nasal cavity by conventional means, for example with a dropper, pipette or spray. The compositions may be provided in single or multi-dose form. In the latter case of a dropper or pipette, this may be achieved by the patient administering an appropriate, predetermined volume of the solution or suspension. In the case of a spray, this may be achieved for example by means of a metering atomising spray pump.

Administration to the respiratory tract may also be achieved by means of an aerosol formulation in which the active ingredient is provided in a pressurised pack with a suitable propellant such as a chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) for example dichlorodifluoromethane, trichlorofluoromethane, or dichlorotetrafluoroethane, carbon dioxide, or other suitable gas. The aerosol may conveniently also contain a surfactant such as lecithin. The dose of drug may be controlled by provision of a metered valve.

Alternatively the active ingredients may be provided in the form of a dry powder, for example a powder mix of the compound in a suitable powder base such as lactose, starch, starch derivatives such as hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). Conveniently the powder carrier will form a gel in the nasal cavity. The powder composition may be presented in unit dose form for example in capsules or cartridges of, e.g., gelatin, or blister packs from which the powder may be administered by means of an inhaler.

In compositions intended for administration to the respiratory tract, including intranasal compositions, the compound will generally have a small particle size for example of the order of 5 microns or less. Such a particle size may be obtained by means known in the art, for example by micronization.

When desired, compositions adapted to give sustained release of the active ingredient may be employed.

The pharmaceutical preparations are preferably in unit dosage forms. In such form, the preparation is subdivided into unit doses containing appropriate quantities of the active component. The unit dosage form can be a packaged preparation, the package containing discrete quantities of preparation, such as packaged tablets, capsules, and powders in vials or ampoules. Also, the unit dosage form can be a capsule, tablet, cachet, or lozenge itself, or it can be the appropriate number of any of these in packaged form. Tablets or capsules for oral administration and liquids for intravenous administration and continuous infusion are preferred compositions.

Further details on techniques for formulation and administration may be found in the latest edition of Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences (Maack Publishing Co. Easton, Pa.).

The QIM assay to determine MIC₅₀ was performed as now described. Briefly, Raw 264.7 cells were infected with H37Rv-GFP in suspension at a MOI 2:1 in RPMI 1640 supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated FCS for 2 hours at 37° C. with shaking. After three washes with RPMI-1% FCS (fetal calf serum) by centrifugation, 45 μl of 15000 infected cells were dispensed into each plate well pre-plated with 5 μl of compounds to be tested and controls. Infected cells were incubated for 5 days at 37° C., 5% CO₂. After five days, macrophages were stained with SYTO 60, 5 μM (Invitrogen, S11342) for 1 hour at 37° C. and image acquisition was performed on an EVOscreeen-Mark III fully automated platform (PerkinElmer) integrated with an Opera™ (10x-air objective) and located in a BSL-3 safety laboratory. Mycobacteria-GFP were detected using a 488-nm laser filter and SYTO 60 labelled cells with a 635-nm laser filter. Two fields were recorded for each plate well and each image was then processed using dedicated in-house image analysis software. The results are summarized in Table 2. The QUM assay to determine MIC₅₀ was performed as now described. Briefly, 384 plates (Greiner, #781091) were first prepared with 0.5 ul of compound to be tested dispensed by EVOBird (Evotec) in 10 ul of 7H9-10% ADS-0.05% Tween80. M. tuberculosis H37Rv expressing the green fluorescent protein (H37Rv-GFP) precultured in separate test tubes at 37° C. in Middlebrook 7H9 broth (Difco) supplemented with 0.05% Tween 80 (Sigma, P8074), 0.02% Glycerol, 10% Albumin-Dextrose Saline (ADS) and 50 ug/ml Hygromycine (Invitrogen) for 5 days until the Optical density (OD) reached between 0.4˜0.5. For the assay, the precultured H37Rv-GFP bacteria were then placed into 7H9-10% ADS-0.05% media after centrifugation. Forty microliters of H37Rv-GFP bacterial suspension diluted to 2×10⁶ CFU/mL (based on GFP fluorescence assessment and a reference curve) was then added to the pre-prepared 384 plates resulting in a final volume of 50 ul containing 1% DMSO. Plates were incubated at 37° C., 5% CO₂ for 5 days. Mycobacterial growth was determined by measuring GFP-fluorescence using a Victor 3 reader (Perkin-Elmer Life Science). The results are summarized in Table 2.

The REMA using concentrations of compounds, to be tested, from 60 μM to 3 nM was performed as now described. Briefly, 66.6 μl of 7H9-10% ADS-0.05% Tween80 medium was prepared through 3-fold serial dilutions of drugs in every well of 96-well microtitre plates except peripheral wells where 200 μl sterilized water was added to prevent evaporation during incubation. 33.3 μl of the Mycobacterium multi-drug resistant (MDR) strains (MDR-33, 137 and 146 are clinical isolates) were added to pre-prepared plates resulting in a final volume of 100 ul (final bacterial OD=0.005) Plates were sealed and incubated at 37° C. for 1 week. Twenty-five microliters of 0.02% resazurin (Sigma Chem. Co.) solution was added to each well; plates were re-incubated for an additional 1 day. A change in color from blue to pink indicated the growth of bacteria, and the MIC was read as the minimum compound concentration that prevented the color change in resazurin solution. The results are summarized in Table 3.
